Former NBC News correspondent Linda Vester accused Brokaw, 78, of unwanted touching and trying to forcibly kiss her in 1994 and 1995, according to interviews she gave to the Washington Post and the trade publication Variety. They both agree that Brokaw was helpful in recommending her to Roger Ailes, at Fox News, where Vester went to work after NBC. Variety ran a video interview with Vester that included some incidents not reported by The Post.

In a statement to The Post, Vester's lawyer said that "my client stands by the allegations which speak for themselves". She said Brokaw left when she broke away and made it clear she did not want any more.

The report also detailed the claims of an anonymous woman who told the Post that Brokaw acted inappropriately toward her during her time as a production assistant in the 1990s.

Brokaw dismissed Vester as having had "limited success at NBC News, a modest career at Fox and a reputation as a colleague who had trouble with the truth".

Vester said the following year in New York, Brokaw sent her suggestive computer messages in the office before later announcing on the phone that he was coming to her hotel room. "Hard to believe it wasn't much more Look at Me than Me:Too". She told the Post Brokaw put her hands against his chest, pulled her closer and then invited her to later come to his office.
